FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a novel imidazole derivative or a pharmacologically acceptable ester or salt thereof and a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating hypertension, congestive heart failure, renal failure, glaucoma or hyperuricemia which contains the same as an active ingredient.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

It is widely known that Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system is closely connected with hypertensive pathogenesis through control of blood pressure and the water/electrolyte balance. Prevention and treatment of hypertension including essential hypertension and further congestive heart failure by controlling this system have been studied for a long time. As the controlling methods, there are i) inhibition of synthesis or secretion of renin which is thought to be situated at the most upstream position of the system, ii) renin-inhibition of the conversion of the renin substrate (angiotensinogen) to angiotensin (I), iii) inhibition of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) which converts angiotensin (I) into angiotensin (II) having strong vasoconstriction action, aldosterone secretion stimulating action, sympathetic nerve function promoting action and the like, iv) blockade of angiotensin (II) receptor, v) activation of angiotensinase to accelerate the degradation of the produced angiotensin (II).

Among them, the study of ACE inhibitors is most advanced, and many drugs have been used for preventing or treating hypertension or congestive heart failure. However, since the ACE inhibitors are not selective and act toward other systems such as kalliklein-kinin system and the like, there is a clinical problem in that side effects such as skin rash and dry cough occur frequently. For this reason, many attempts to develop a renin inhibitor which is thought to be more selective have been tried but none have been successfully marketed.

On the other hand, since salarasin obtained by modifying the terminal part of angiotensin (II) has been found to have the antagonism to the receptor of angiotensin (II) by D. T. Pals et al., the study on a receptor antagonist (hereinafter referred to as Ang-II antagonist) has begun. Studies are directed to search for a nonpeptidic compound without partial agonist activity which can be administered orally, and has long-lasting action. The first reports are found in JP-A 54-148788, JP-A 56-71073, JP-A 57-98270 and JP-A 58-157768, but the pharmacological activity is about 1/10000 of the practical level. An increase in this activity to a practical level was first reported in EP-A 0253310 and EP-A 0291969, and the compound called as Dup753 is currently in clinical tests. ##STR2##

However, since this compound is usually produced as a mixture of regio-isomers (where the ratio depends on the reaction conditions), Dup753 can not be selectively synthesized unless a special process is used, and this is thought to be a problem for mass production. On the other hand, it has been recognized that an addition of a hydrophilic group on the 5-position of the imidazole ring is effective for increasing the pharmacological activity. This working hypothesis was compelled to be significantly modified by the finding of benzimidazoles shown in EP-A 039231717 (also reported in EP-A 0400835 and EP-A 0399732 later) and imidazopyridines (see EP-A 0399731, EP-A 0400974 and EP-A 01415886). ##STR3##

In addition, the present inventors have found that imidazobenzoquinones shown by the following formula have higher angiotensin (II) antagonist action and also have the vasodepressor activity in vivo tests, and filed a patent application (Japanese patent application No. 3-102639, 3-140057 and 3-205879). ##STR4##

On the other hand, them have been reported many compounds possessing a fused imidazole structure with a nitrogen containing saturated and/or unsaturated cyclic compound. For example, Warner Lambert has been reported the following compound (EP-A 245637). ##STR5##

    R.sup.4 =--CH.sub.2 OR,--CH.sub.2 NR.sub.2,--CHO,--CN,--CO.sub.2 R

However, WL-19 reported therein has the selective affinity to different type Ang-II receptors and the vasopressor activity is far from practical use [Chang et al., Mol. Pharmacology, 24, 347 (1990)]. Merck has been reported a wide group of compounds as shown in the following (EP-A 400974, WO91/11999), and further a 7-membered (EP-A 401030) or 5-membered (EP-A 407102) nitrogen containing saturated compound. ##STR6## In particular, the compound wherein the fused ring is of the formula: ##STR7## which is disclosed in EP-A 4430974 and W091/11999 has a problem both in terms of stability and activity, in particular, in vivo activity, oral absorbability, weak hypotensive action and short duration of action, etc.

Takeda has been reported the following compound including a compound wherein the fused ring is of the formula: ##STR8##

Searle has been reported the following imidazopyridazine derivatives (WO91/19715). However, when R¹ and/or R² are hydroxy group in the compound, formation of ##STR9## bond via keto + enol tautomerism can be also considered. The structure of the Searle compounds is as follows: ##STR10##

The following compound reported by Roussel Uclaf (EP-A 46 1040) includes ##STR11## as the A ring. Also in this case, formation of ##STR12## via keto ⃡ enol tautormerism can be considered. ##STR13##

PROBLEMS TO BE SOLVED BY THE INVENTION

The present inventors have attempted to find a novel Ang-II antagonist as an agent for preventing or treating hypertension, congestive heart failure, renal failure, glaucoma or hyperuricemia, and studied drugs which have good stability, high activity, rapid manifestation of action upon intravenous injection, good oral absorbtion, low toxicity and long-lasting action. As a result, it has been found that novel imidazole derivatives having certain bridgehead hydrazine derivatives are effective. Thus, the present invention has been completed.

The imidazole derivative [VIIb] which can be readily obtained from an diaminomaleonitrile and various orthoesters can be converted into an imidazole derivative [VIIe] or [VIIf] by alkylation under basic conditions using substituted or unsubstituted phenylmethyl or biphenylmethyl group according to conventional methods. As examples of a base which can be used for the basic conditions, there are metal hydrides such as lithium hydride, sodium hydride, potassium hydride and the like, an organometallic lithium compound such as n-butyl lithium, phenyl lithium and the like, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, potassium t-butoxide, or organic amines such as triethylamine, 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0.] -5-nonene, 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-7-undecene and the like. The reaction solvent varies depending upon the kind of the base, reaction conditions and the like, but it can be appropriately selected from ether solvents such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and the like, alcohol solvents such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, t-butanol and the like, amido solvents such as dimethylformamide, diethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, pyrrolidone and the like, or dimethyl sulfoxide and the like. The reaction temperature varies depending upon the kind of base or solvent. For example, when sodium hydride is used as the base and dimethylformamide is used as the solvent, a temperature in a range of from -30° C. to 50° C. is suitable, and when potassium carbonate is used as the base and a mixed solution of tetrahydrofuran and dimethylformamide is used as the solvent, a range of from room temperature to 80° C. is suitable.

A method for converting the nitrile group of [VIId,e,f] into a corresponding carboxylic acid (Z═OH) and alkoxycarbonyl group is known. For example, conversion into the end product [IIIa,b,c] can be carried out in high yield by heating in water or an alcohol, respectively, using sulfuric acid as a catalyst when acidic conditions are used.

Conversion of the compound [VId] into the compound [Vd] by heating with hydrazine is described in EP-A 400974 (JP-A 3-95181), and the compound [Ve] wherein the nitrogen atom in the imidazole ring in [Vd] is bound to a substituted phenylmethyl group is described in WO-91/11999.

On the other hand, conversion of --NH--NH-- linkage in [Vd], [Ve] into --N═N-- linkage by an oxidative reaction is also described in the above-described EP-A 400974 and WO-91/11999. However, as also described in J.Am.Chem.Soc., Vol. 84, 966(1962), a compound having a --N═N-- linkage becomes unstable. In fact, since an imidazole derivative bonded to ##STR23## group which is shown in EP-A 400974, WO91/11999 degrades rapidly at room temperature, it can not be used as a drug. The stability of an imidazole derivative bonded to ##STR24## group is improved in comparison with that of ##STR25## but the stability thereof in air is not necessarily sufficient because of conversion into ##STR26## in the oxidative conditions.

On the other hand, since the synthesis where R is substituted by lower alkyl group in ##STR27## has not been reported, the comparison with such the case can not be made. However, it has been found that an imidazole derivative bonded to ##STR28## has high in vitro receptor binding activity and the activity when intravenously administered and, however, the water absorption is low such that the activity when orally administered is far from the practical level and the action lasting time is extremely short as 2 to 3 hours.

From this point of view, the present inventors studied ways to improve the physiological activity of imidazole derivatives represented by [Vd], [Ve], and at the same time to inhibit the lowering of the stability which is caused by the oxidizing reaction of --NH--NH-- linkage, and finally to prolong the action lasting time of a drug. As a result, it has been found that a compound obtained by subjecting a compound having a --N═H-- linkage and various dienes to Diels Alder reaction, and a compound obtained by subjecting this to hydrogenating or dehydrogenating reaction, or a compound obtained by subjecting --NH--NH-- linkage to cyclizing alkylation reaction have a bridge structure as shown below and becomes metabolically stable due to steric hindrance and can maintain high activity for a long period of time. ##STR29##

A compound having the hydrazine bridge structure is only known in the significantly restricted number of medicines and candidates therefor. ##STR30##

That is, there are cilazapril as an angiotensin convening enzyme inhibitor used for hypertension, diftalone and cintazone used for an anti-inflammatory agent and the like, the structures of which am shown above. However, an antagonist to angiotensin (ID receptor is not known.

By treating [Vd], [Ve], [Vf] with an oxidizing agent such as lead tetraacetate, N-bromosuccinimide, or t-butyl hypochlorite at a low temperature according to the methods which are known in the literature [see, for example, J.Am.Chem.Soc., 101, 7347 (1979); Angew. Chem., 78, 376(1966)], a ##STR31## group is converted into a ##STR32## group, and since this group ##STR33## is unstable also at a low temperature as described in J. Am. Chem. Soc., 84, 966(1962), conversion into [IVd-1], [IVe-1], [IVf-1] can be carried out by forming ##STR34## and at the same time performing Diels Alder reaction in the presence of the various dienes. As usual reaction operations, the following operations can be employed. A diene in an amount of from equal mole to 5 times moles relative to [Vd-Vf] is mixed with a halogenated hydrocarbon solvent such as dichloromethane, dichloroethane and the like, and an oxidizing agent such as lead tetraacetate, N-bromosuccinimide, t-butyl hypochlorite and the like in an amount of from equal mole to 5 times moles is added thereto at a temperature of -78° C. to room temperature. Although varies in the kind of substituents, even at -30° C. to room temperature, since degradation proceeds in case of --N═N-- linkage as described in J. Am. Chem. Soc., 84 966(1962), reaction operations are carried out preferably at a temperature as low as possible in view of the reaction rate.

In the [IVd-1], [Ive-1] or [IVf-1], the double bond between B and C of A--B═C--D-- can be converted into a saturated bond by hydrogenating reaction in the presence of a catalyst such as palladium-carbon, palladium hydroxide and the like to obtain [IVd-2], [IVe-2] or [IVf-2] as described in J. Am. Chem. Soc., 101, 7347(1979). However, when R is a substituted or unsubstituted phenylmethyl or biphenylmethyl group and the reaction is carried out at a temperature of not lower than 50° C., the reaction causes reductive elimination of R, and as a result, only [IVd-2] is obtained in some cases. Therefore, the reaction for obtaining [IVe-2][IVf-2] must be carried out under mild conditions at a temperature of not higher than room temperature.

On the other hand, when A--B--C--D is --C(R¹³)(R¹⁶)--C(R¹⁴)═C(R¹⁵)--C(R¹⁷)(R¹⁸) and both of R¹⁶ and R¹⁸ are hydrogen in the general formula [IVd-1], [Ive-1], [IVf-1], a carbon atom to which R¹³ or R¹⁷ is bonded is brominated by the bromination reaction using an equal molar amount of N-bromosuccinimide by a method according to that in J. Org. Chem., 51, 3123(1986), and the relevant compound can be beat-treated to be converted into a corresponding diene [IVd-3], [IVe-3], [IVf-3] as shown in the reaction scheme below.

Alternatively, there may be used the method such as epoxidation of a double bond by metachloroperbenzoic acid, followed by ring cleavage of epoxy ring and dehydration by conc. sulfuric acid [J. Org. Chem., 50, 5604 (1985)], or addition of bromine to a double bond, followed by de-hydrogen bromide by a base [J. Heterocyclic Chem., 22, 273 (1985)]. As the base usually used, there are sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, potassium t-butoxide or organic amines such as triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]-5-nonene, 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4,0,]-7-undecene and the like. Further, alternatively, a diol can be obtained by the reaction using a stoichiometric amount of osmium tetroxide, or using a catalytic amount of osmium tetroxide in the presence of triethylamine N-oxide, morpholine N-oxide and the like, and the diol can be converted into diene [IVd-3], [IVe-3], [IVf-3] by treating with sulfuric acid, polyphosphoric acid and the like at room temperature or under heating. ##STR35##

And, [IVe-4,IVf-4], [IVe-1,IVf-1], [IVe-2,IVf-2] or [IVe-3,IVf-3] can be synthesized respectively, by reacting substituted or unsubstituted 1,3-dibromopropane (or 1,3-dichloropropane), 1,4-dibromo-2-butene (or 1,4-dichloro-2-butene), 1,4-dibromobutane (or 1,4-dichlorobutane) or 2,5-dimethoxy-2,5-dihydrofuran (or 2,5-dibromo-2,5-dihydrofuran) in an amount of from equal mole to 1.5 times moles with [Ve] or [Vf] using a basic compound, for example, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, n-butyl lithium, phenyl lithium, lithium hydride, sodium hydride, potassium hydride, sodium methoxide, potassium methoxide, potassium t-butoxide and the like in an amount of 2 to 4 times moles relative to [Ve] or [Vf] in an ether solvent such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and the like, or an amido solvent such as dimethylformamide, diethylformamide and the like preferably at a temperature in the range of 0° C. to 80° C. under the reaction conditions which are usually used for alkylation reaction of amides.

On the other hand, by reacting substituted or unsubstituted acrylic chloride, acrylic ester and the like with [Ve] or [Vf] under the presence of the above-described basic compound, it can be derived into [IVe-5,IVf-5] via the known Michael addition reaction. Similarly, [IVe-6,IVf-6] can be obtained by hydrolysis after reaction with 2,2-dimethoxy-1,3-dibromopropane.

When R² and R³ are both hydrogen or lower alkyl group and R⁴ and R⁵ are taken together to form ═O bond, or R² and R³ are taken together to from ═O bond and R⁴ and R⁵ are both hydrogen or lower alkyl group, or R², R³, R⁴ and R⁵ are hydrogen or lower alkyl group in the general formula [I], then the imidazole derivative of the present invention can be prepared, for example, by the following reaction scheme. ##STR36## wherein d, e or f means that the nitrogen atom in the imidazole ring bonds to hydrogen atom, substituted or unsubstituted phenylmethyl group or biphenylmethyl group, Z is hydroxy group or lower alkoxy group, and L is hydroxy group, halogen, or hydroxy group activated by p-toluenesulfonyl group, methanesulfonyl group and the like.

An imidazole derivative represented by [IVd,e,f], [Vd,e,f] or [VId,e,f] can be convened into [VIIId,e,f], [IXd,e,f] or [Xd,e,f], respectively, wherein R², R³, R⁴ and R⁵ are hydrogen by reducing one of amidocarbonyl groups using metal hydrides such as lithium aluminum hydride, diisobutylaluminum hydride, lithium tri-t-butoxyaluminum, borane, tributyltin hydride and the like, or into [Id,e,f], [XId,e,f] or[XIId,e,f], respectively, wherein both amidocarbonyl groups are reduced by using an excess amount of the above reducing agent or rising the reaction temperature according to the conventional methods. As the reaction solvent, there can be used ether, tetrahydrofuran, dimethoxyethane, toluene, dichloromethane and the like. The reaction temperature of -78° C. to room temperature is suitable, but a low temperature is desirable in order to obtain selectively [VIIId,e,f], [IXd,e,f] or [Xd,e,f], respectively.

One ester group of 4,5-diester of [VId] can be reduced into hydroxymethyl group in a good selectivity using lithium triethylborohydride under ice-cooling in tetrahydrofuran, for example, according to the method described in WO91/19715. And when R is trityl group in [VI], a compound [XI] wherein L is hydroxy group and Z is methoxy group can be obtained preferentially according to the method described in Can. J. Chem., 60, 723 (1982). On the other hand, when R², R³, R⁴ and R⁵ are lower alkyl group or allyl group, [VIIId,e,f], [IXd,e,f] or [Xd,e,f] can be obtained by reacting [IVd,e,f], [Vd,e,f] or [VId,e,f] with an organometallic compound such as lower alkyl lithium, lower alkyl Grignard reagent, alkyltrimethylsilane and the like. [Xd,e,f] or [XIId,e,f] can be derived into [IXd,e,f] or [XId,e,f] by the reaction with hydrazine according to the method for converting [VII into IV]. And, the ring closure from [IXd,e,f] to [VIIId,e,f], or from [XId,e,f] to [Id,e,f] can be carried out according to the above method for synthesizing the various cyclized derivatives from [IV].

When A or D is absent in A--B--C--D in the general formula [I], [Id-4,Ie-4,If-4], [Id-5,Ie-5,If-5] or [Id-6,Ie-6,If-5] can be obtained using the above method of conversion from [IVe-4,5,6] to [VIIId,e,f], or from [Id,e,f] or [Ve,f] to [IVe-4,5,6] according to the following reaction scheme. ##STR37##

When A--B--C--D is --C(R¹³)(R¹⁶)--C(R¹⁴)═C(R¹⁵)--C(R¹⁷)(R¹⁸)--and R¹⁴ and R¹⁵ are both hydrogen atom in the general formula [Ib], an alcohol derivative [XIIId,e,f] can be obtained by the hydroboration reaction using the various boron hydride compounds, followed by the reaction with hydrogen peroxide as shown in the reaction scheme below. As the boron hydride compound, there are diborane, borane-tetrahydrofuran, borane-dimethylsulfide, 9-BBN, dicyamylborane, thexylborane and the like. Usually, as the solvent, there are used ether, tetrahydrofuran, dimethoxyethane, diglyme and the like. The reaction temperature of -20° C. to room temperature is suitable. The reaction with hydrogen peroxide is usually carried out at 0° C. to room temperature in methanol or ethanol. In addition, [XIIId,e,f] can be convened into ketone [XIVd,e,f] by oxidation using a metal oxide such as manganese dioxide, chromium trioxide and the like. ##STR38## Pharmacological Activity

The pharmacological activity of the compounds of the invention is shown by the following tests.

1) In vitro angiotensin II mesenteric artery receptor binding assay

According to the method (1) by Gunther et al., a membrane fraction was prepared from mesenteric artery of male rat 50 μm protein equivalent of it and 0.2 nM ¹²⁵ I-Ang II as well as various concentrations of test compounds were incubated at 22° C. for 90 minutes in an incubation buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 120 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl₂, 0.25% bovine serum albumin, pH 7.2) (reaction volume; 200 μl). The incubated was cooled, and the reaction was stopped by addition of ice-cooled phosphate buffer (10 mM phosphate, 140 mM NaCl, pH 7.4, hereinafter referred to as PBS), and then the reaction solution was filtered through a glass fiber filter (Whatman CF/B), the filter was washed, dried, and then the radioactivity of captured ¹²⁵ I-angiotensin II which bound to the receptor was measured by a γ-counter. Non-specific bound amount was obtained from the reaction in the presence of 1 μM of unlabeled angiotensin II. The test compounds were tested at the concentration of 0.01 to 1 μM, and the compounds that inhibited not less than 50% of total specific bound amount at 1 μM were determined as an active compound to obtain 50% inhibiting concentration (IC₅₀) [see Gunther, S., Gimbrone, M. A. and Alexander, R. W., Circ. Res., 17:278-286, 1980].

2) In vitro adrenal cortex angiotensin II receptor binding assay

According to the method by Capponi et al. (1), angiotensin II receptor binding assay was carried out by preparing a membrane fraction from an adrenal cortex of a male rat and using this as a receptor material in the same manner as that described in the above pharmacological test 1) [see Capponi, A. M. and Cart, K., J. Biol. Chem. 254:5120-5127(1979)].

3) Antagonism to angiotensin II constriction in an isolated rabbit thoracic aorta

A rectangular strip-like sample of thoracic aorta isolated from an anaesthetized rabbit was prepared, and the sample was suspended at 2.0 g of loaded tension in a Magnus tube filled with Krebs-Henseleitoid nutrition solution which was well aerated with 95% O₂ -5% CO₂, and the constriction tension was measured using an isometric transducer. After the tension of the sample at rest became stable, accumulative administration of angiotensin II was carried out to obtain a concentration-action curve. Thereafter, the sample was washed with the same nutrition solution, then treated with test compound (10⁻⁶ M) for 20 minutes to obtain again a concentration-action curve of angiotensin II. The results were obtained as followed: generated maximum tension at the first accumulative administration of angiotensin II was regarded as 100 %, and the 50% effective concentration (ED₅₀) was obtained in the presence or absence of the test compound, and pA₂ value was calculated according to the following equations:

    pA.sub.2 =-logK.sub.B

    K.sub.B =C/{(A'/A)-1}

4) Antagonism to blood pressure increasing by angiotensin II in a spine destroyed rat

Wistar rat anaesthetized with pentobarbital was fixed at dorsal position, and a cannula for measuring blood pressure was inserted into sinister arteria carotis communis, and a cannula for administration of the test compound into dexter external jugular vein and a cannula for administration of angiotensin II into sinister external jugular vein, ambilateral nervus vagus was cut, and artificial respiration was carried out. A thin bar made of metal was stabbed into spinal column through sinister orbita to destroy spine. Blood pressure was recorded on polygraph via pressure transducer from an arterial cannula. After blood pressure was stable for more than 30 min., 3 μg/kg of angiotensin II was administered intravenously four times every 15 min., and every 5 min. before the administration of angiotensin II from the second administration onward, a solvent, a lower dose of the test compound, and a higher dose of the test compound were administered intravenously in this order to observe the blood pressure increasing response by angiotensin II. ED₅₀ values were calculated from the inhibiting rate when the first blood pressure increase by angiotensin II was regarded as 100%.

In above tests, the compounds of the present invention showed high activity. In particular, the Compound No. 450 (U-96849), No. 451 (U-97018), No. 454 (U-96934) and No. 455 (U-97030) showed ED₅₀ value of 0.95, 0.84, 1.28 and 0.81 mg/kg, respectively, and all of them showed the action lasting time of not less than 5 hours at 3, 1, 3 and 1 mg/kg, respectively, in blood pressure increase by angiotensin II-inhibiting test (intraduodenal administration) of angiotensin II using an anesthetized normotensive rat In hypertensive rat model (SHR), the compound No. 451 (U-97018) was confirmed to have the significant vasodepressor activity over 24 hours in 10 mg/kg oral administration test in hypertensive rat model (SHR).
